HaLlOwEeN 09

This year's Halloween started off with a trip to Goodwill for our costumes. Original idea: me as an 80's girl and Nic as a cowboy. That plan failed and we found this great hat for Nic for $.49! He ended up as a...
Scarecrow. He even asked me to do his make-up for him! If I do recall, his words were something like "I can't believe I'm even asking this, but will you do my make-up for me?" Priceless. My 80's outfit wasn't quite coming together so at Wal-Mart I found a kid's cat costume (ears, bowtie and tail). Black cat it is. Nic was cooking his Chicken Chili for our ward party. Now you get the idea of our full costumes...

Rarrrr. I'm a cat on the prowl...

We had a yummy chili dinner and dessert. Nic made Road Kill Chili (aka Chicken Chili). It turned out really well and then we had a trunk - or - treat. Here's our trunk all Halloweened out.
Those are skeleton lights - great investment we made for the years to come. After our party, we went to Freddies and got Halloween decorations - they were on sale. Woo hoo! We had a Happy Halloween!
